On The Old Kentucky Shore lyrics
Song information
Artist: Bill Monroe Album: The High Lonesome Sound
Lyrics
I walked out to the graveyard Down by the church of god I looked upon the one I love That would soon be covered with sod
Up along the ohio river Over on the old kentucky shore Once dwelled a fair young maiden Now there's a crepe upon her door
The angels took my darling God needed the one I loved I reached the old kentucky shore today I'll make my plans and meet her up above
The last words that my darling said Was tell the one I love goodbye I would like to see him before I go But I'll meet him in the sky
